Graphic 45's new Christmas collection, Winter Wonderland

I love this year's Graphic 45 Christmas collection with it's traditional reds and greens and so perfect for this layout of my great niece and nephew. I wanted this great photo to be the focal point so it is centered on a large punched doily with two floral clusters, simple but effective.

You can make really pretty floral clusters by first fussy cutting flowers from design paper and then layering dimensional flowers over the fussy cut ones. In this case I used a pine cone and berries branch along with a single bloom. I dry brushed a little white paint on the pine cones and flower to add a touch of winter.

I used a chipboard title from Creative Embellishments that I heat embossed with Stampendous aged ivory embossing enamel.

Then, to add a festive look, I highlighted some of the flower petals and berries on the design paper with red Stickles.

About Me

I suppose one can make the connection between scrapbooking and travel. After all, if one travels a lot, there usually are pictures begging to be scrapped. My husband and I retired a couple of years ago and wander the continent whenever possible in our motorhome. We've been from Key West, FL to Fairbanks, Alaska and from the Pacific Ocean to the Atlantic Ocean in our RV!
But you are probably wondering what "Bark" has to do with this. Currently we are owned by two standard poodles and we usually travel in our motorhome so that they can accompany us. We refer to the motorhome as the "Doghouse".
So, I scrap, we travel, the dogs bark. In 3 words, I have described to you much about who I am! I do always take scrappy supplies with me in the RV so that when the mood strikes, I am ready!
I hope you'll visit my blog often to see what I am up to and please leave me a message now and then so I'll know you were here!
